An intense interrogation panel with the worst energy I have ever felt in my life. The phone interview with the CEO was amazing, but the team of 5 people that panel interviewed me in person was horrific. I was told (not asked) that I have an "alpha" personality and would I be able to tone it down. I am a woman and the panel was all women. One of the interviewers sat back in her chair with arms crossed glaring at me through the entire interview. Then each person sort of went around and talked about how difficult their jobs were, how much of a slog it was, and how I needed to feel ok not getting any support. All of the questions centered around my ability to control my emotions and work heads down in a (What they described) as a pretty horrible job from a team too busy to support each other. The interview was full of weird "gotcha" style questions and no positives of the company were discussed AT ALL. Just testing me against their most negative scenarios over and over again. Some of the highlights: "Do you cry??" "Can you handle no one caring about your opinion?" "Do you know when to be quiet in a room?" "Can you handle someone writing 'garbage' on your work as the only feedback and not getting upset about it?" "Will going 27 rounds on a deliverable exhaust you?" "You keep talking about psychological safety...what does that mean and why should I care?" "I do not want to be sitting here at table in 6 weeks with you crying that you cannot handle this job" I was also asked to talk about a specific time I had a conflict at work and after giving an example one of the interviewers critiqued my response and questioned my account of a work story they asked for. It was unprofessional, rude, and I wish they hadn't asked me to drive 90 minutes to their offices just for that unproductive spectacle. I withdrew my application.
